Self care is at the root of all health.

To balance our current Western medical model whose strengths lie in emergency medicine and saving those who are already sick, Spark Wellness is offering virtual learning opportunities to begin building healthier self-care practices at home. You will be immersed into a routine of self-care practices known, for thousands of years, to foster a strong immune system and a balanced mind, body and spirit. These small preventative measures are the secrets of the sages and the keys to longevity. After your initial virtual consultation, a custom Preventative Medicine Kit is made to suit your individual needs. View a sample kit below and learn more about the individual self-care practices by exploring the links. Email with questions or visit the shop to purchase your Wellness Kit today.

Magnets

Begin your own practice of Bio-Magnetic Acupoint Therapy at home by replacing needles with low-level magnets. With instructions and guidance on use and placement, magnets can provide gentle and continuous stimulation at specific acupoints. The application of kinesio tape over the magnets helps to keep them in place for up to three days.

Press tacks

These modern Japanese tools are tiny surgical grade, stainless steel needles attached to waterproof and breathable hypoallergenic tape. Although the needles do not puncture the skin as a traditional acupuncture needle would, they do provide continuous stimulation at important points when applied.
